The eighth season of Bravo’s Emmy-winning “Top Chef” will feature 18 familiar faces. It’s a season of all-stars, which means the contestants are all former contestants from the previous seven seasons. And we’ve got the run-down (and photo above) here:

Elia Aboumrad; Season two, final four

Stephen Asprinio; Season one, top five

Richard Blais; Season four finalist

Jennifer Carroll; Season six, final four

Tiffany Derry; Season seven, top five

Tiffani Faison; Season one finalist

Carla Hall; Season five finalist

Mike Isabella; Season six, top seven

Jamie Lauren; Season five, top seven

Dale Levitski; Season three finalist

Antonia Lofaso; Season four, final four

Spike Mendelsohn; Season four, top five

Angelo Sosa; Season seven finalist

Dale Talde; Season four, top six

Casey Thompson; Season three finalist and fan favorite

Marcel Vigneron; Season two finalist

Fabio Viviani; Season five final four and fan favorite

Tre Wilcox; Season three, top eight

That’s quite a list. Even though there could be some great surprises, I’m going to make a final two prediction now. It would be amazing to see Marcel and Richard Blais battle it out. They both should have won their seasons, so it’ll be interesting to see if one of them can pull it off now.
